摘要：Purpose: Previous studies suggested inconsistent relationship between subscapular skinfold and all-cause, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular mortality. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the associations between subscapular skinfold with all-cause, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular mortality. Patients and Methods: Data were collected from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 1999– 2006) with follow-up data through 31 December 2015. Participants were categorized by subscapular skinfold quartiles. The hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were evaluated using the multivariate Cox regression model and subgroup analysis. Kaplan–Meier curves were used to present cause-specific mortalities and used Cox cubic regression splines to examine the association of subscapular skinfold with cause-specific mortalities. Results: A total of 16,402 subjects (49.61% male) were involved in our study. After a mean follow-up of 141.73 months, there were 3078 (18.77%), 392 (2.39%), and 128 (0.78%) cases of all-cause, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular mortality, respectively. Participants in the highest quartile of subscapular skinfold (≥ 24.80mm) versus the lowest ( 0.05). Conclusion: Subscapular skinfold showed an inverse association with all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality in people aged ≥ 65 years.
